In case of emergencies
This equipment is designed to drop down arms automatically if there is power failure thus make the passage being open to the public. And
there is interface in the turnstile main board to connect an emergency switch (J6 Drop Arm) which would make the tripod turnstile keep open in
case of emergencies. Note after power restoration, wait for more than 6s and then lift the arms manually.

5.2 Maintenance
Forming maintenance consciousness
The tripod turnstile needs to be maintained regularly and repaired once it is damaged. It is recommended that warning signs being placed at
conspicuous positions for prompting passers-by to pass in a proper way and in good order. Reasonable maintenance consciousness helps to
guarantee long-term usage of the tripod turnstile.
Regular maintenance

Cleaning and protection liquid dedicated for stainless steel are recommended to wipe the outer shell of the equipment regularly. The tripod
turnstile used outdoors or in an environment with lots of dust must be maintained once a year at least, for example, clean up the dust and add
appropriate lubricating oil to Trilobed Wheel. Note regular maintenance should be performed after power off the equipment.
The Adjustable Tension Spring is used to adjust the tripod turnstile's elasticity and return speed. You can rotate it in clockwise direction to
enhance and in anticlockwise direction to weaken the elasticity and return speed of the tripod turnstile. See figure 5-2.
